still feeling weird about how channels work on farcaster. a few things that make it frustrating: · memberships lock exploration: instead of encouraging me to explore new channels, the membership system made me stick to the ones i'm already in. · managing pinned frames is annoying: i need to keep the frame pinned in /groupies so people can join, meaning i can't pin other casts to the channel for visibility. · notifications are easy to miss: i never check the channel notifications tab, a friend had to message me to finally see and accept their invite. · posting friction: tried posting in /nature yesterday but wasn't able to since i wasn't a member — the process of going to the channel, finding how to join, then coming back to write the cast again is too much, so it's easier to cast no-channel instead. am i doing something wrong here, or is this a shared experience? i miss the old farcaster, where i could just explore and post freely in different channels.

To my knowledge you’re doing nothing wrong, I’ve had a very similar experience. Was going to post in a channel last night, wasn’t a member. Now have a friend asking the owner to add me (they don’t have a frame in the forefront to become a member). Disincentives exploring new channels which in turn makes it harder to follow new people, etc

yeah, it's a whole process and now it's not even easy to find who's the channel owner to send a message (which also feels intrusive and annoying).
